Premier Li Keqiang warned that some government officials might profit from intermediary organs dealing with administrative approval items that had been weeded out. Enterprises must pay for intermediary services to accomplish certain tasks, which led to an increase in their burden, he said at the State Council’s executive meeting on Jan 4.

“Resolution must be made to eliminate irregular intermediary services, especially the ones manipulated by government officials,” said Premier Li.
